CUL. BRYAN IN NEW HOME.
He Has Moved Into Fairview, His $20,04
Home.
[New York Sun.]
Col. William Jennings Br) an fu
nished additional evidence this weE
of plutocratic tendencies by remo
ing from the brick barn which h
been his home for the last nit
months and taking possession of tl
$20,000 house he has been buildir
for a year on the highest point
land near Lincoln.
Mr. Bryan says it cost him $2(
000, and it is a well proportion
building, made of pressed brick at
stone and fitted with hand carvE
oak finishings throughout.
It faces directly west and contail
21 rooms, including parlors, a rece
tion ball and library down stairs an
bedrooms, a nursery, a schoolroo
and gymnasium upstairs.
The kitchen is in a connectE
building. Entrance is had by wi
of a great half-round veranda lea
ing into a beautifully carved at
finished hall. From the porch o
can see for many miles in any dire
tion. Off to the east and son
stretch great reaches of farmit
lands while to the north and we
down in a tree embowered val<
nestles the city itself.
Fairview is the name by which tl
Bryan home will be known. Ti
name is appropriate.
Alfhough three miles from ti
city, the house is fitted with eve
modern convenience. Its owner do
not eschew luxury in the interior a
pointments and costly plumbin
electric lights and artistic decor
tions, with city water, make it
thoroughly modern house. Ceme
walks and driveways give easy a
cess to the various buildings, at
seemingly no money has been spar<
to make lire within its walls wor
living.
Colonel Bryan is a rich man ai
rapidly getting richer. He has be
abcesed of acquisitiveness, but mai
of his critics have unjustly dia
nosed his case. Mr. Bryan lik
money and he has a keen appreci
tion of what it will afford its p<
sessor. He has spent less than I
income every year of his active lii
and it is now getting so large as
be almost unwieldy-for him.
His .newspaper is firmly esta
lished. Although he has disdain<
business assistance, he has made it
big money maker. Thirty thousai
dollars a year is a conservative esi
